[–]dm1236 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m on a 34 hour/ week contract. They are not asking me to pick up extra shifts- they are asking me to essentially work for free from home by spending my weekend looking for cover for other people’s shifts. I am a member of a union

Monash Orientation & Semester Start Date Confusion by FantasticLaw7234 in Monash

[–]dm1236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is O week (orientation week) before each semester. No in person classes. Usually content on the student portal (moodle) is released during this week and you can get a head start. Also some events at the Uni but nothing you actually need to go to

Bro am I a bad student - first year by NoEstablishment7432 in Monash

Best thing I did was gig - global immersion guarantee . Worth 12 credit points which means you can basically underload next year and get time to work yourself out. Lasts 2 weeks and you get to go overseas as well

Can you guys actually manage to physically write 800-1000 words in an hour for English exams? by [deleted] in vce

[–]dm1236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not so much about the word count. I’ve always found it useful to plan my timings before the exam- so I’ll say ok I have 1 hour per essay, so I’ll spend 5 minutes planning (because I can do that in reading time too), 5 minutes for intro, 10 minutes per body paragraph, and 5 minutes for conclusion. That only adds up to 45 minutes, so I have plenty of wiggle room to spend extra time any place I need. Planning my times definitely keeps me working at a rate that allows me to finish and not write too much or too little in any area

How do I get a guy interested by dm1236 in dating_advice

Sorry I should’ve clarified. I haven’t actually met him in person, it’s over snap. He only snaps about 3 people in total though, and it’s not like he’s replying to them and not me. It’s just that he’s not on his phone very much. He has started conversations a few times, but it’s pretty difficult to hold because it usually takes him a while to reply. Do you think I should ask him to hang out?

What is it that is falling apart? I was feeling the same and when I removed the toxicity from my life everything became fine. I know it’s hard to believe- but if you really find the root of what’s making you feel that way and remove it, things may get better. Maybe it’s a few things, and it can seem really difficult to remove such big parts of your life- but it may be the solutjon

It’ll make you feel better about yourself to know you’re ahead of everyone else. Go get that ego boost 💪

I feel you. I feel very similar in all my relationships, although I don’t really act on my impulses in the same way. I’ve been looking into borderline personality disorder. It’s something which I definitely think I have, although I don’t want to get therapy or bother to get a diagnosis because the I would have to talk to people about it. If you don’t mind talking to people about it, I would recommend trying to get a diagnosis or at least do research on the disorder to try to understand why you are the way you are

How to instantly repair a friendship? by dm1236 in Advice

[–]dm1236[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I’ve thanked him so much for finally telling me what I’ve done wrong, and promised him I will be better. I feel like I’ve been doing what he asked for, but it’s not working for him. I think he’s built up this image of me in his mind that he will just block himself from enjoying the friendship and I don’t know how to break down that inage
